Cloudland Canyon 50

Rising Fawn, United States • 6-7 Dec 2025

Cloudland Canyon Trail Races take place at Cloudland Canyon State Park in Rising Fawn, Georgia, featuring 50M, 50K, 25K, and 5M distances. Held December 6-7, 2025, all races start and finish in the park. The courses combine rolling canyon trails with dramatic scenery: waterfalls, open valley views, and sunrise horizons.

Elevation gain ranges are substantial: roughly 7,500 ft for the 50M, 4,500 ft for the 50K, 2,900 ft for the 25K, and about 500 ft for the 5M. The 50K uses a single loop plus a lollipop, the 50M adds another lollipop, and the 5M is a short, hilly loop. Swag includes a pint glass and a beanie, with medals for the 50M/50K/25K; proceeds support the park. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
